2012 Frank Landy SIOP 5K Fun Run

Paul Sackett

It was a beautiful morning for the 20th Frank Landy SIOP 5K Fun Run along the San Diego harbor on Friday, April 26. We had record turnout of 158 runners, and a good time was had by all. Perennial winner Stephen Murphy held off Nicholas Budzyn by one second to take the men’s division, with Deborah Powell winning the women’s division. We also had a record number of entrants in the four-person team competition, with the University of Minnesota (Nathan Kuncel, Chelsea Jenson, Adam Beatty, and Phil Walmsley) narrowly edging Hogan Assessment Systems (Kevin Meyer, Jarrett Shalhoop, Jackie VanBroekhoven, and Christopher Duffy). Special thanks go to Kevin Reindl (3rd place overall) for finding us a great course and other local arrangements in San Diego. Join us next April for the 21st running in Houston.
